Ok...I'll bite
It was that saucer thingy on the roof that got full of snow, and he crash landed....right ????

The MIA/AWOL story made me laugh and remember a Chuck Yeager story in his biography-a wonderful read should you happen to.
I don't remember the exact details but?
Yeager was in charge of a bunch of planes and had to account for the whole lot.
One the commanding officers had a huge bug up his rear about them-how many there were and what their condition was.
Yeager, because of the toll that combat was taking on his ships and he could not account for them? He came across this idea to fool the CO-who would go by the tail numbers on the planes.
Yeager would have the crews paint the numbers of the missing craft on newer craft, then insert them into review!
No missing planes? No problem!

Koko,
Kinda sad when your boss can't do anything simple like 'turning a key" to start a plane?
